Professional Plumbing, Heating & Boiler Services across RM12
Trusted Local Experts
Elm Park was built almost entirely in the 1930s as a single planned estate around its District line station, and we cover it as part of our regular Romford-based work in Havering. The area is mostly terraced and semi-detached housing from that era, with a small parade of shops along The Broadway and Elm Park Avenue. We carry out bathroom installations, boiler and heating work, and plumbing repairs for homeowners across Elm Park.
Plumbing & Heating in Elm Park Homes
Elm Park is one of the most uniform estates in Havering: developer Richard Costain built almost the whole area between 1933 and 1936 around the new District line station, marketing it as 'Elm Park Garden City'. That means the vast majority of houses are 1930s terraces and semis of similar construction, rather than the mixed-age streets found in older parts of Romford or Hornchurch.
Because the housing is so consistent in age, the plumbing issues tend to be consistent too. Original cast iron soil stacks and lead or galvanised supply pipes are still found in unmodernised houses, along with loft cold water tanks feeding a gravity hot water cylinder. Many owners are converting to a combi or unvented cylinder as bathrooms get refitted, and on semis it's worth checking how drainage is shared with next door before starting any work.
As with the rest of the borough, hard Essex water causes limescale build-up in kettles, showers, and boiler heat exchangers, which is worth factoring into any boiler service or shower installation.

"Dan and Mitch provided an excellent service for the installation of my new shower. They arrived on time and were very respectful and friendly. The work they did was of superb quality and we would definitely use their company again. We were highly impressed with the price they charged as this seemed very reasonable. Thank you very much."
"Dan and Mitch were quite simply superb. From diagnosing the problem to installation. Felt in safe hands throughout. Very prompt and even swept up afterwards. Highly recommend."
"I contacted DJ's Plumbing Services to fit a new mixer tap. Dan, our plumber was very polite, friendly and helpful. He said the tap could either be repaired or a new one fitted. I chose to replace it. Dan removed the old one, cleaned the area and fitted the new one. He carried out the work quickly, cleanly and efficiently. He checked to ensure there were no leaks. Before he left he cleaned and tidied the work area and took away the old tap for disposal. I was very happy with all aspects of the work. Very reasonable rates, very friendly and helpful. 100% recommended!"
